Mark’s Last Post

I hope you’re having a good time back in America. What are you doing in school? I’ve done all my homework!

We’re coming home tonight. I’ll see you on Friday.

Love, Mark

Christina and all- I really enjoyed the pictures of animals and joggers at Kruger park. Jeremy- good ending to your blog! Hope Christina got our messages that her suitcase and most of the contents are in GR. Hope that is true for more of you. (Tiny-Don’t forget to pick up any paperwork from british airways for delayed luggage and missing items.) We’re excited to have you back in the US and hear more tales first hand. Let someone know when and where you will be arriving at Calvin for a ride home. Love you! mom

About

This course introduces students to a country with a tragic past but
also a promising future. The primary academic objective of this
Interim is to gain firsthand knowledge and understanding of how
racial injustice has been encountered in political and industrial
contexts. Participants in this Interim not only read and study South
African history, culture, and industrial change - they also visit
South African townships, meet with leaders engaged with South
Africa's political changes, and visit a platinum mine. Students
explore - in readings, classes, and visits - South Africa's apartheid
past, the struggles for and miracle of its democratic transition, and
the political-economy of the mining industry where interactions of
politics, business, and race are poignant.
